Get The Facts.

Don’t be misled about where the natural gas will be used.

FACT: The NEXUS pipeline stands to benefit all customers along the route.

FACT: NEXUS is designed to directly serve consuming markets in northern Ohio and southeastern Michigan.

FACT:NEXUS has signed 14 connection agreements with various Ohio markets along the proposed route. These connections include local distribution companies, industrial parks and power plants in your community.

Don’t be misled about the significant benefits to the community.

FACT: The NEXUS project will have a significant positive economic impact on communities, businesses and workers throughout Ohio and Michigan.

FACT: In its first year in operation in Ohio, NEXUS will generate an estimated $83 million in tax revenue, of which approximately $57 million would go directly to local Ohio school districts.*

FACT: Additional tax revenue will allow counties to make important investments in schools, roads, public safety and other key priorities of local government.

Don’t be misled about the effect on property values.

FACT: There is no evidence – even with more than 300,000 existing miles of pipelines in the U.S. – that natural gas pipelines negatively affect home loans, property values or insurance costs.

FACT: A recent study has shown that the presence of pipelines does not affect the value of a property, its insurability, its desirability or the ability to obtain a mortgage.

FACT: The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has researched this issue in-depth and reported the results in an Environmental Impact Statement (FERC Docket CP11-56-000, FEIS, pages 4-181, 4-183) and determined there are no pipeline-related impacts on property values, home loans or insurance costs.

Don’t be misled about the minimal noise associated with compressor stations.

FACT: Federal guidelines prescribe that the noise from compressor station operations at the nearest noise sensitivity area (NSA) cannot exceed 55 decibels (dBA). By way of illustration, a dishwasher operates at approximately 50 decibels.

FACT: NEXUS will employ noise mitigation measures as necessary to demonstrate compliance with the federal guidelines.

FACT: Noise surveys will be conducted to verify that federal noise levels are not exceeded.

More than 300,000 miles of pipeline reliably bring clean natural gas to our homes, businesses and factories every day.

NEXUS partners, DTE and Spectra Energy Partners, have constructed and operated pipelines in North America for nearly two centuries combined.

Once the NEXUS pipeline and related facilities are placed into service, NEXUS will monitor the pipeline 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

There is a need for additional natural gas infrastructure in Ohio and Michigan.

Due to its environmental benefits, consumers are increasingly using natural gas to fuel power plants, and municipalities are using it to fuel their transportation fleets.

As our population continues to grow, we will consume more natural gas for electricity, home heating, industry and transportation.

The pipeline infrastructure in Ohio and Michigan is not currently equipped to meet the growing demand for domestically-produced natural gas.

NEXUS pipeline will not contaminate drinking water or aquifers.

The pipeline is made of high-strength steel with epoxy coating, and the natural gas is transported in a gaseous state.

Natural gas is lighter than air, which means in the highly unlikely event that natural gas escapes from the pipeline, the gas can only travel up through the soil into the atmosphere where it dissipates.

No toxins are released during the construction or operation of the NEXUS facilities that would affect water quality.

Annual emissions at NEXUS compressor stations will be roughly equivalent to a dry cleaner, paint shop, or a gas station.

The proposed NEXUS compressor stations have applied for and received a minor source permit from the Ohio EPA, which is for facilities with emissions less than 100 tons per year.

Emissions from the NEXUS compressor stations will be less than one-third of the threshold necessitating a major source permit, thus making the site a minor source similar to a dry cleaner, paint shop, or gas station.
